More fun for everyone!
From skilled riders looking to get rowdy on gnarly terrain to new riders looking for the most forgiving, confidence-inspiring bike out there. The wider rims and big 3. tires let the Bad Habit run lower pressures for ultimate control across the nastiest rocks and roots. The large rolling diameter and increased air volume gives you an incredible approach angle and floation over tricky sections but without the weight penalty of fat bike rims and tires. Unlike many "27+ bikes out there which are really just repurposed 29'ers running 2.8 tires, the Bad Habit's lightweight, Smartformed alloy frame is designed specifically for 27+. Room for full 3. tires, short chainstays and dialed geometry means better performance and more fun.
The Bad Habit mainframe, rear and shock link are made of SmartFormed Alloy.
The Zero Pivot rear is a special construction that needs no bearings, no bushings, nothing to add weight or cause play, just seat stays engineered to flex along a given path, providing a plush, progressive travel. It also reduce unsprung weight for better suspension response. The oversized axles in the swingarm and link lock into place with a unique expanding collet system, dramatically increasing the system stiffness.
The 12 mm travel, 68 degree head angle, custom 55 mm fork offset, short chainstays and low-slung chassis offer the perfect blend of speed and capability to let you shred whatever on the mountain throws your way. Suitable for that wide 76 mm bars, shorty 6 mm stems, 18/16 mm brake rotors and wider rims put you in absolute control.
The built in RockShox Reba fork is super consistent, durable and easy to service. It offers the new Boost axle standard and a remote lockout.
The RockShox Monarch RL shock lockout can be controlled directly on the damper element.
The Bad Habit 2 is equipped with the Shimano SLX/Deore drivetrain for smooth shifting performance with 2x1-speed. Proven hydraulic Shimano Deore disc brakes allow great braking power. A solid wheelset with wide Cannondale Beast rims and WTB Bridger tires provide a guarantee that acceleration forces of any direction transfer directly to the trail. A wide lowriser handlebar provides maximum performance.
